Yes police can lie.

I had a girl ask me again if I was an LEO, and I did my "No, but I hope you realize they don't have to tell you." spiel. She flipped out, said I was lying, and I had to tell her, and then she ghosted.

This happens all the time.

Here is a link to a document EVERY PROVIDER SHOULD READ. It is the ACLU's "myths" sheet about law enforcement.

For you who STILL doubt me, try googling Frazier v. Cupp, its a Supreme Court case that says, police can lie to you.

Educate yourself, hobbyists, feel free to peruse as well.

More of the story....The hilarious thing is this girl tried to tell me her mother was a "court appointed attorney" (whatever that is), so she knew I was lying and must be an LEO.

1) If I said NO anyway, and couldn't lie, then WTF was she worried about
2) If her mother is an attorney, she's a REALLY BAD one, besides, no attorney I know refers to themselves as a "court appointed" attorney, that's a client term.
3) Why would anyone NOT google something as simple as "Can the Police lie to me" and then READ any of the articles on the first page with such informative titles as

"Why the police can lie to you but you can't lie to them" LOL

I think this question has to really become an automatic screening question for intelligence, or... something.

Stay safe everyone

The more you know!

DrugLord: So are you a cop, you have to tell me
Narc: Dammit, how did you know, Yes, you got me, I'm a cop.
DrugLord: BLAM BLAM BLAM. Police are so stupid.

Lol. They always lie especially if interrogating more than one person...."your buddy confessed already so you might as well tell us the truth or we'll throw the book at you".

The scene in Breaking Bad where Badger gets arrested is a perfect example of the stupid criminal who believes this:
